The feelings are mutual, you are on the same page and you are making prolonged eye contact. In love and romance this is a steamy card about connecting with another person on a deep level, but it can be a partnership outside of the romantic
Something is off balance in a key relationship. Some ruptures can be healed, but pay attention as this card is a sign that a breakup or ending might be what's needed in the long term.

Two of Cups for Capricorn in Love and Relationships
The Architect
Cups are the water suit, so the Two of Cups sits in Cancer. Cancer sits directly opposite Capricorn, so this card describes the half of the situation Capricorn habitually hands to someone else. What it wants is this: say the feeling to the person it is about. Handing that to another person is exactly the habit. Upright, the second thing has actually arrived and the negotiation between them is live.
When reading about relationships through a Capricorn lens, the Two of Cups says that you feel like intimacy is something you build toward through consistency and small acts, a long-term project with measurable progress (or regression), and safer when you know exactly what is expected. This has either created a partnership that deepens because you actually show up or left you unable to ask for anything because asking feels like admitting you cannot handle it alone. The thing you're not saying out loud is the thing that matters most. The Capricorn blind spot in it is being useless, being a burden, being the person who could not hold it together.
In practice that can look like an old love resurfacing, or new love. Whatever form it takes, it is becoming a two person situation.
